Abstract:

Management of human resources is a continuing process of change. As one set of objectives are achieved, new standards of excellence and new challenges arise. Hence, administration applies three basic criteria of effectiveness in managing the human resources of the library. One criterion is the satisfaction and well being of staff members; second, the ability of the organization to sustain innovation in the system by developing new capabilities. Efficient and effective service of libraries depends on their staff, or human resources, the librarians. Hence, the third basic criterion is the job satisfaction of librarians who play a vital role in this technology and information era.
